I have read several of the post regarding binoculars. I am looking at buying a pair for both bow hunting and muzzleoader. I currently have a cheap pair of Bushnell 10x50's. They are a little to big for what I need them for. I guess I would like something a little more compact and rugged. A good set of 8x42's or something comparable int the <300.00 range. I have looked at Bushnell and Nikon. Any suggestions?
